Is this product something you're familiar with? Is it commonly called Double Cream where you live? Is the thinner variety called Single Cream? TYIA.

I've gotta be honest guys, I was hoping that some of our non-UK members would answer. I'd be pretty suprised if Double Cream wasn't called Double Cream and Single Cream called Single cream where you guys live

I think it might be a little early for our non-UK friends

I think around here it goes with (from thinner to thicker) english cream (3-5%), table cream (10-15%), and whipping cream (35%), which I think is also called cooking cream.

These appellations are pretty common around here.

Sorry, I've never seen it around here as either single or double cream.

If it is a regular 'cream' then we have things like 'light cream', 'heavy cream', 'whipping cream' and 'half & half' in our dairy aisles next to the milk.

Same. I'm guessing the double cream is akin to our "heavy whipping cream" which is commonly used both for cooking and for making whipped cream to go on top of pied and whatnot.

I think they become double after you've conducted double blind studies on them and have written magic messages with a 100 dollar pen on the container before putting it in the refridgerator.

Double cream and sour cream are two different things. Sour cream goes on nachoes. Double cream does not (its way too liquid).

Is double cream simply whole milk (single cream) with all the cream from another batch of milk of the same volume added to it?

The mystery is solved: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_cream

It appears in the US, what we call "Double Cream" is hard to get (Double Cream is heavy cream of 48% or more fat).
